Hotels in Choluteca

There are many hotels in Choluteca to choose from. Most of them put special emphasis on their pools. The reason for this is that the Southern Honduras tends to be hot, and clients welcome a nice pool to cool off in. Of course, all the hotels have air conditioning. You could not sleep in them without it! Following is a list of hotels in Choluteca to help you find the perfect one for you.

Hacienda Gualiqueme

Pool at Hacienda Gualiqueme Hotel in Choluteca

Hacienda Gualiqueme is a lovely hotel built with a classic Latin American rural architecture. A large pool gets some splendid shade from centennial trees in the gardens. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and of course have air conditioning. Hacienda Gualiqueme is the premier hotel in southern Honduras. You cannot go wrong staying here.

Hotel Casa Real

The Hotel Casa Real is on the outskirts of town, on the road to Guasaule, so you are a bit out of town. The hotel is one of the newer ones in town, and offers meeting facilities, as well as a large pool. Rooms are spacious and of course have air conditioning. Personally, I prefer a location closer to town and the different restaurants in Choluteca.

Hotel La Fuente

Pool at Hotel La Fuente Choluteca

This is one of the long standing hotels in the city. Easy to get to, and easy to continue with your trip the next day. They offer an extensive ve pool under large trees. Services include a full service restaurant as well as some limited meeting facilities. This property is part of a local hotel chain, Hoteles La Fuente. Rooms are spacious and comfortable.

Hotel Rivera

Grounds at Hotel Rivera Choluteca

Located next to most of the hotels in Choluteca, the Hotel Rivera reminds me an old roadside motel in the USA. Place to park your inside, rooms around the parking lot, a nice pool for the kids to swim and consume their energy after a day in the car, a pleasant restaurant on premises…

The Hotel offers clean rooms, a great location and friendly staff. It is a favorite for mission groups that visit this part of Honduras. If you are looking for a clean hotel that is easy to get and close to other restaurants, this is a great option.

Hotel Paradise

Facilities at Hotel Paradise in Choluteca

You will find The Hotel Paradise almost at the junction of the roads to Guasaule and San Marcos de Colon. It has a pleasant setting with inside parking and a nice pool to cool off in. It is more modern that many of its competitors, and while the rooms may be more updated. Yet the pool lacks that charm of yesteryear that many of the rest of hotels in Choluteca have. The property has a restaurant and a small meeting facility on premises.

Hotel Villa Margarita

A pleasant nice property located on the outskirts of town, on the road towards San Marcos de Colon. The hotel has nice rooms a large pool. Views are towards the the expansive plains surrounding Choluteca. A restaurant complements the site and allows you to stay within the premises for all your needs. If you are traveling on the Pan American Highway and need a place to spend the night, Hotel Villa Margarita is a great alternative. You won’t need to deal with hassle of going into Choluteca to find your hotel.

Hotel Camino Real

The Hotel Camino Real is on the outskirts of town, on the road towards the El Guasuale border. The hotel was renovated a few years ago and offers pleasant grounds. A nice pool and great meeting facilities are part of the complex. Rooms are all you need, with clean private bathrooms and air conditioning. Please note that this property is not related in any way or form to the luxury Camino Real Hotels that you may find elsewhere in Central America or Mexico!

Hotel Internacional

Hotel Internacional in Choluteca

You will find it a couple of blocks away from the Hotel La Fuente. The property is a three or four story building and offers spacious rooms and a large pool.

Hotel Flamingo

Hotel Flamingo Choluteca

A small family run hotel that is close to the market in Choluteca. Rooms are small, and facilities are limited, but they are clean and safe. Owners are usually on premises and will go out of their way to help you out in any way. I have stayed at the Hotel Flaming and had great service while there.

One of the greatest bars and restaurants in Utila has ceased to exist. As a matter of fact, it pretty much died when its founder, Lee Odelein passed away a few months ago. Rehab Bar came to be under the direction of Lee. He was a friendly, charismatic fellow who knew how to run a restaurant bar.

Travel between Roatan and Utila used to be nuisance. With no regular service scheduled between the islands, you had to travel to La Ceiba and then backtrack to the other island. Fortunately, that is all part of the past.. The Utila Dream Ferry Service now operates daily between both islands.

This week I was in Utila. I needed to run some errands and hired one of the local “tuk tuks” or motorcycle taxis. These are three wheel motorcycles made in India. They are ideal for Utila, because they are narrow and fit well in the local pedestrian streets. So I flagged this taxi, negotiated the […]

I guess I am a born explorer. Perhaps not your Indiana Jones adventurer going way off the beaten path to follow a quest. But I am one to take a turn on the road and see where it leads. Today while in Roatan, I did just that, and went down a steep road following a sign that said “Ibagari”.

Since I live in La Ceiba, travel to Roatan is easy. I have two options: I can fly or take the ferry. When I first moved to Honduras, I could only fly, as there was still no ferry service available. Fortunately, we now have a state of the art ferry that is efficient, safe and fast!

Also known as the “Cave of the Glowing Skulls” these unique caves are near Catacamas. Catacamas is one of the two important cities in Olancho, Honduras. The find was unique, as the caves served as a ceremonial burial ground for an ancient civilization. Olancho is officially outside the Mesoamerican region.

Olancho is a department in Honduras. It is the largest department in the country and is even bigger than El Salvador. For most travelers, Olancho is way off the beaten track. I must confess, it had been a good 15 years since I visited Olancho. I took advantage of a trip to Tegucigalpa last week […]
